0:00.0	Welcome to episode 547. I am still on vacation. This is a replay of an episode that was originally
0:09.1	aired in 2013 with Karen Kilgaraf. We recorded it at the Portland Comedy Festival and
0:16.0	called Bridgetown and it was a lot of fun. It was a lot of fun. This is before Karen ever
0:22.9	started doing my favorite murder. I hope you guys enjoy this episode. As I said,
0:28.8	the other episodes we will be back with new episodes in August. Our sponsor this week, as always,
0:36.7	is BetterHelp.com online therapy. If you want to check it out, go to BetterHelp.com slash mental.
0:43.5	Make sure you include the slash metal parts so they know you came from this podcast so they will
0:47.5	continue to advertise with us. Then just fill out a questionnaire and if they have a counselor,
0:52.7	they think is a good fit. They will match you up with one and you can experience a free week of

1:36.8	when I became was an animal. They took away my shoe laces. I became chaos. Like in a hurt said,
1:42.1	just want to go away. You have no idea what a small part of your life this is. You go to this
1:47.0	park group. It's like creating a family that you didn't have. I mean, 90's, what are you to say? My body
1:52.4	was abused. 99% of judgment about that event. But they couldn't touch the best parts of me.
1:58.1	But the world is a little bit winning. It's also glorious. It does always get better. It's pretty good.
2:21.6	I'm so glad you guys are here. I've been kind of agonizing over what to talk about when
